Rule No. 96
rulesforthesouthernlady: My Grandmother always tells me that worrying is like sitting in a rocking chair- it gives you something to do but gets you nowhere.  So think about something else.  Whatever is worrying you will work out because it always does. Instead of worrying go fix a drink and enjoy this beautiful life that we get to live.

Importance of Importance
Making someone feel important and cared about is one of the greatest gifts you can give them.At the end of the day, as humans we just want to know that our gifts and talents and who we are are valued by others. We may not consciously be aware of this little fact but who has ever said they hated hearing praise and feeling like what they are doing matters/benefits someone else. Try to make at least...

It's been awhile
Sorry for the brief hiatus. Getting back to school, recruitment, and homework has gotten in the way of some crucial thankful blogging. But I am back! Stay thankful!

“We are afraid to care too much, for fear that the other person does not care at all” Eleanor Roosevelt How do you go about not letting the past hold you back in your relationship with someone new?

The family opens up their hearts and...

Everyday Appreciation
Yesterday, my family was getting dinner at the local diner when a woman walked up to my mother. She told her she had remembered her from 20 years ago and wanted to tell her how much she appreciated how my mother cared for her two twin girls in the hospital all those years ago. My mother is a pediatric nurse and was in charge of over seeing the two premature babies health and recovery. The woman...
